We try to keep it simple, irrespective of any game. We analyse our shortcomings, and it has helped us. We're playing the same eleven.
Rishabh Pant:ย We are OK with the toss, but we'd have bowled first. Slightly nervous, but it's part and parcel of the game. One change for us - Ripal Patel goes out, and Tom Curran comes in. The confidence level is high when you win games, but we'll not take the match lightly.
